Hi Martin,good point. The difference is that KDE on Mac developer(s) prefer to support X11, and I am not sure anyone wants to spend precious time for supporting X11 on Windows. I am not, and I would be assuming WIN32 => NOT X11 in code I maintain. So if this is consistent with general direction, equivalent of APPLE_FORCE_X11 for windows makes no sense. So the case for Windows in KDECMakeSettings.cmake could be simpler, but yes, it's needed. Please give me some time for that. -- regards, Jaroslaw Staniek KDE: : A world-wide network of software engineers, artists, writers, translators : and facilitators committed to Free Software development - http://kde.org Calligra Suite: : A graphic art and office suite - http://calligra.org Kexi: : A visual database apps builder - http://calligra.org/kexi Qt Certified Specialist: : http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek _______________________________________________ Kde-windows mailing list Kde-windows@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-windows
